$4.50

If you multiply 14 by $0.75, you get $10.50. now subtract that by $15.

Sharon's gets $4.50 back in change

Answer: $4.50


Step-by-step explanation: So, to start off you would need to multiply the amount of folders by the amount that they cost (which is $0.75)

You would get $10.50 as the total amount she paid for the 14 folders.

Finally you subtract the $15 dollars from $10.50, here you would get the answer of $4.40 as her change.

If you think this is wrong then feel free to tell me and I can retry. :)
